The Cahors (formerly Visiosat) Big Bisat is considered by many to be the best dish antenna available, suitable for a multifeed for reception of 8 satellites.

The popular Bisat dishes, with their well-known rectangular shape, have for years offered the possibility of receiving multiple satellites -including the Astra and HotBird- simultaneously. With the Cahors G4B Quattro-sat satellite dish, suitable for reception of Hotbird (13 degrees) and Astra 19.2 degrees, 23.5 degrees and 28.2 degrees East, Cahors (Visiosat) has a formidable competitor in house for the smaller TechniSat Multytenne. This is because the Bisat G2 has a larger 'bad-weather reserve' and will therefore continue to provide images for longer during a heavy rain or downpour.

The Big Bisat is larger than the Bisat G2, 91 cm wide and 70 cm high respectively versus 75 cm wide and 64 cm high. So the Big Bisat is a bit larger and therefore offers (even) better satellite reception, for those who want to combine almost all major European satellites on one fixed satellite dish. In addition to the aforementioned Astra satellite and Hotbird, the Big Bisat also allows you to add the satellite positions Sirius, Thor, Eutelsat W3A and Atlantic Bird. Particularly suitable for being able to receive programs from the North and East of Europe.

The Big Bisat comes standard with 4 LNB holders. Optionally, several loose LNB holders can be ordered in 2 sizes: a loose LNB holder of 40mm or a loose LNB holder of 23 mm (especially suitable for small feed LNBs (3 degrees difference is possible)).
